I had a lovely chat with a ministry partner and friend this morning. He reminded me of helpful things that I had once known and have forgotten. Little things, like setting a timer for daily prayer times, and having A Spot for them.
And it occured to me that I have a wealth of knowledge from my history with the Lord.
I have been seeking and following Jesus for nearly 15 years. Fifteen years. In human terms, that means that I'd be getting my learner's permit to drive. That I'd be begining to come into my own.
I pondered and prayed about other things, but somehow, I wanted to blog about the simple fact that it has been 15 years. My, how much that encompasses. And it's an interesting thing to consider this spiritual age, if you will, in the light of the place I was at when I actually was 15. When I was actually 15, I was in quite a place as a young high school sophomore, and only two years since God grabbed hold of my heart and life. How much did God see me through then, and how much he has seen me through since then, no matter the rough patch we're in now.
I belong.
